The accused, two indian men aged 31 and 23, waited two hours for their victim to finish his work on November 13th in 2008. They followed him to his car in the airport parking lot and one man jumped into the passenger seat where he restrained the victim while the other assailant sat behind him, pulling his head back by the hair and cutting his throat.
The murder is alleged to have been carried out over money that was allegedly owed by the victim. They had reportedly been following their victim for two months before they finally murdered him.
The case will next appear before the Dubai Criminal Court on August 24th.
A specialist prosecution office has been proposed for Dubai airport, prompted by the increase in criminal activity. Between January 1st and June 30th 2007 there were a total of 3,234 reported cases and this figure increased to 3,452 during the same period in 2008.
The specialised airport prosecution will be capable of speeding up legal procedures whenever a crime is reported at the airport. The new service is expected to improve litigation services and reduce workload. Apparently around 80 to 90% of drug suspects caught at the airport had hidden the drugs in capsules inside their bodies, primarily by swallowing.
Increased vigilance in cracking down on narcotics trafficking have led to a sharp drop in drug cases at the airport.It has been stated that the number of narcotics related cases at the airport have fallen by as much as 30% in the first half of 2009. 95% Of cases were for trafficking of small amounts of narcotics brought into the country for personal use.
